Who Are We?

Spectra Recruitment Pty Ltd was born in October 2020 working in our humble beginnings at the kitchen dining table, one laptop and an excel spreadsheet. We began building relationships, allowing our story and personality to get out into the market and growing connections with wonderful clients and candidates.

The Directors had a different vision for recruitment in Australia and wanted to change it up from day one.

1 year later Spectra R opened their first office in Ormeau Industrial Estate on the beautiful Gold Coast, QLD and here the team began to develop and grow.

With over 20 years of industry knowledge across Australia and the UK, the Spectra Recruitment team are specialists in recruiting qualified, professional, and skilled talent across Australia.

We specialise in Permanent Positions, Fixed Term Contracts, and Labour Hire in Manufacturing, Logistics, Engineering, Construction, Oil and Gas, and Mining.

We are a very energetic, highly driven and "a motivated company" that want to see our team, clients and candidates achieve greatness.

We love a good success story and we love working with them every day.

Share your story with our team.

Meet The Directors!

Bridgeen

Bridgeen, originally from Co. Armagh, Northern Ireland, has been living the dream in Australia since the beginning of 2017 and trying to change how Recruitment is done.

Meeting people is her passion and she thoroughly enjoys a good chat over coffee or a cold glass of wine by the beachfront.

Where did the love of recruitment begin? Bridgeen studied her degree in Human Resource Management at University, whilst working in her first role. Once she obtained her Degree she studied another year with the Chartered Institute of Personnel Development. During this time Bridgeen began working in Recruitment specialising in Blue Collar recruitment across Northern Ireland for various Manufacturing and Logistics companies and this is where her passion really started. She was hooked!

​Bridgeen then began working for a Global Recruitment company in Northern Ireland within the White Collar Manufacturing and Logistics space and it was very clear that her drive, motivation and passion for recruitment shone bright and led to great success.

Fast forward to 2016 and Bridgeen got the wheels in motion for a relocation to the land down under. Bridgeen began her Australian journey at the beginning of 2017 specialising in White Collar and Blue Collar Manufacturing and Logistics across Brisbane.

Fast forward to Oct 2020 and Spectra Recruitment Pty Ltd was born.

"Almost 10 years in recruitment and I still get blown away with the talent out there. Understanding people's backgrounds and skills is a joy for me - I get completely overwhelmed and excited when I stumble upon a SUPERSTAR."

"I am committed to creating a better future for people and their families and helping organisations succeed."

"We get one life, make the most of it, see the world and what it has to offer, find your dream job and your little bit of heaven."

"Be creative, motivated, passionate and never let anyone dull your sparkle."
